Coastal Dynamics 2009 - Impacts of Human Activities on Dynamic Coastal Processes | 2009
Tracey H. Tom; Hajime Mase; Tomohiro Yasuda
This study developed a real-time wave prediction system by using SWAN (Simulating WAves Nearshore) together with 10 meter wind data from “Hourly Available GPV (Grid Point Value) Atmospheric Analysis”. Validation of this system was carried out by comparing predictions with observations from NOWPHAS (Nationwide Ocean Wave information network for Ports and HArbourS) wave gauges during the month of December, 2007. The predicted wave heights and periods corresponded well to observed values. This system provides current and near future ocean condition estimations for locations where observational wave data is unavailable.

Accurate real-time wave prediction is an invaluable resource for coastal disaster mitigation, especially when determining the activation of disaster evacuation plans and inundation countermeasures. This study presents: (1) the development and validation of real-time wave prediction using the wave model SWAN (Simulating WAves Nearshore) with wind forcing from the meteorological data of GFS (Global Forecast System), and HAGPV (Hourly Available Grid Point Value) atmospheric analysis, and (2) the development of a virtual buoy system. The predictions were compared with wave gauge observations at various locations throughout Japan. Predicted wave heights and periods corresponded well to observed values. The virtual buoy system is accomplished using the Google Maps API to visually show wave predictions. The prediction system was applied during the coastal swell disaster at Toyama Prefecture, Japan in February 2008 and gave reasonable results for swell heights and periods.

This study developed a real-time wave prediction system by using SWAN (Simulating WAves Nearshore) with the data of hourly analyzed atmospheric GPV (Grid Point Value). The validity of this system was carried out by comparing the predictions with observations from NOWPHAS (Nationwide Ocean Wave information network for Ports and HArbourS) during one month of December, 2007. The predicted wave heights and periods well corresponded to the observed ones. By using this system, wave situations at present and short-term future can be estimated for locations where there are no wave observation equipments.
